A Poinsettia for Christmas.......

Hello everyone: I think I've said all I can say (for now) about what is going on in our Country, so all I can say today is that I wish for you Peace, Health and Joy.
God Bless You.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I have one more Christmas card to add to my stash, this card was created using
one of the panels I showed yesterday on THIS POST, I'm a team member for the Shopping Our Stash Challenge so I'm inviting you to come and play along.


I'm sorry to say that I don't recall where this beautiful image came from.  It's a printed image so I must have downloaded it from somewhere, I couldn't find it on my download folder so, if any of you recognize it, please let me know.
I printed the image on Strathmore Bristol paper and colored it with Winsor&Newton watercolor markers, I just love how vibrant the colors are.
I die cut it with a new Hemstitched Squares, on sale now😉
The sentiment is from a Power Poppy set called Glitter House Village,also on sale now, Woo Hoo!! stamped on a die-cut from a Spellbinders die set called Tranquil Moments, the bow is cut with a SU die from the retired "Balloon Pop-Up" Thinlits set.

**********************************************************
This is the INSIDE of my card.


I cut the panel with the same Spellbinders die extending it to fit the length of the card base, super easy, you just cut the top part, stopping halfway, then you move the die down and kind of lock it in place with the already cut edge, turn your panel clock-wise and finish the cutting.  
The sentiment is from a Power Poppy set called Glistening Paperwhites, the little poinsettia is from another Power Poppy set called Merry Littles.

I'm playing along with the following challenges.

Nature or Flowers.





Thank you for visiting me today.
Stay healthy and safe.
XO
Maria.
